Kitchen Cleaning & Sanitizing

Some consider the kitchen the most important room in the house for cleanliness.  After all, you prepare most of the food that your family consumes in your kitchen and most meals are eaten in the kitchen as well.  If you have a barbeque grill on your deck or patio I would also consider that a part of your kitchen or food preparation area.  Keeping your barbeque grill clean is also a must.

If your kitchen is not spotless you could be introducing germs and bacteria into your family’s food that can be very harmful to their health.  Some of the germs and bacteria commonly found in the kitchen can cause an illness for one of your family members in days if not hours.  That illness could be as simple as an upset stomach or as dangerous as food poisoning. 

Sometimes you could be introducing germs and bacteria into your family’s diet that does not result in an easily identifiable illness.  Some of those germs could be affecting your family on a long term basis.  You may find yourself sluggish or irritable as a result of consuming foods with germs and bacteria that reside in your kitchen.

So what is the solution to removing all of the germs and bacteria from your kitchen?  Some people have a cleaning routine in which they clean the kitchen surfaces thoroughly with soap and water and then follow-up that cleaning with a chemical based cleaner that will kill germs and bacteria on contact. 

There are some problems with that method of cleaning.   First, the chemical based cleaners that are available do not get deep enough into all of the cracks and crevasses that are in the surfaces of your kitchen to completely kill the microscopic germs and bacteria that hide there.  Yes, even new kitchen counters and appliances have cracks and crevasses in them where germs and bacteria can hide. 

Another problem with chemical based cleaners is the residue that they leave on the surfaces you clean.  This residue can damage the surfaces in your kitchen over time.  With the cost of kitchen counter tops and appliances this could be very costly in the long run.  Also the bleach and chlorine in chemical based cleaners may kill germs but they leave behind a residue that could to get into your food.

The best way to clean your kitchen is with a vapor steam cleaner.  Vapor steam cleaners use nothing but water to clean and they are capable of cleaning almost any surface in your kitchen.  A vapor steam cleaner creates a low moisture vapor that carries heat to the surface to be cleaned.  The heat along with mild scrubbing cleans and disinfects the surface for you.  Cleaning with a vapor steam cleaner eliminates chemical residues while sanitizing the surface you are cleaning.  Because vapor steam cleaners use only small amounts of water to clean they are virtually free of mess as well as quite and portable.

Vapor steam cleaners also can get to areas beyond the cracks and crevasses on counter tops where germs and bacteria hide.  Try cleaning the joints on your faucets with a vapor steam cleaner.  This is quite a hiding place for germs and bacteria and a vapor steam cleaner will leave them spotless. 

Most people with self-cleaning ovens will set them to clean while everyone is asleep.   If you are one of the lucky ones to get to sleep before the oven starts to clean you may not be jarred awake by that horrible smell.  Many times you will have to complete the oven cleaning the next day by scrubbing away the residue left after the self-cleaning is completed.  With a vapor steam cleaner you clean your oven without using the self-cleaning feature and avoid the unpleasant odors and next day clean-up.

Vapor steam cleaners are hard on germs but gentle on the environment.
